Bigalow80 Posted March 15, 2018 Report Share Posted March 15, 2018 Joe is going to have so many roles with this browns organization it is not going to be funny. Seriously, people will probably see him more now than ever before. Mark my words in 30 years, people will recognize Joe for his media work first before they realize how amazing of a player he was.

Well, the dictum from the league was to go easy on retiring numbers. We'd have a long way to go to catch the Bears with their 14 retired numbers. I think they wanted to retire Ozzie's number, but he declined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Class, yes. But what good would that do Ozzie. No....if that happens...do it while he is alive. Its kind of like this: The "banned" Shoeless Joe Jackson from the HOF "for life". But the SOB has been dead since the 50s. His "life" is over. So...why should the ban continue? They still seem to want to punish him 65 years after he has been dead? Who is being punished? Other than MLB punishing themselves over it....by denying a great player his rightful place.

Its controversial, jackson might've not even participated in the fixing of the 1919 world series, but he definitely probably knew about it. The commissioner back then banned anyone who even knew about it and didn't rat out their teammates. Jackson also tried to tell his GM before it happened but the dude wouldn't listen.

Ghoolie Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Joe Thomas blows. He made no impact on the Browns in any measurable way. Putting him in the HOF is like giving away an award for participation. That's all the guy did. He showed up. Average lardass lineman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaconHound Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Joe Thomas may be the biggest lapse in judgment in NFL history. The Browns wasted a top draft, trade possibilities and money on a left tackle that protected no one for a team that won more than 5 games once in his career. When the team finally looks like they are making moves, he retires. There is no denying that Thomas might go down as one of the best LT in NFL history but his story mirrors why the Browns suck. Joe you got paid, never had to play under pressure and will retire beloved in Cleveland....wish they would've traded you to the Broncos for a 2nd rounder in 2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THen 99% of the time it proves out that I was right all along. Go fukc yourself with your analysis of what you think I am. Stick to the subject and topic. If you don't like what I say, debate that. " Imagining" what my Sock must be like, is just plain fukcked up. Totally fukcked up. Jor Thomas was the most overrated piece of schit to ever play football. When he got hurt, his replacement stepped in and did just as well as Joe did. Again, in his ENTIRE CAREER...............you cannot point to one fukcing analytic in which he improved the Browns offensive performance. NOT ONE. Joe THomas is a nothing. Other than perfect attendance, what has he done? 130 games with no sack? Hey herpes boy, that isn't an individual statistic. That is an O LINE statistic, and like I have told you jackoffs all along, THE BROWNS O LINE HAS NEVER, EVERY BEEN THE SOURCE OF OUR PROBLEM. N E V E R. Offensive linemen are a dime-a-dozen. They are the least athletic players on the field, and they are all interchangeable. GARBAGE PLAYERS. Big, Fat butt, top heavy, slow footed, clumsy bastards pet on the field to cause a veritable landfill to give a QB time to pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunz41 Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Has nobody realized why Ghoolie has the opinion of O Line? I have seen the pictures, he wishes he was them. He grew up just like Billy Bob. He also has 10% the athletic ability of those linemen he talks bad about at the same size. He can beat up everyone he has said, but Joe Thomas woukd beat him down in less than 2 minutes. At least he has a bit of sense. He wants to be like a LINEMAN, .001% attainable, but being any other position, 0%. Ghoolie, Joe Thomas will come to Memphis at some point. Be the man you say you are, tell that stuff to his face. Then watch as he makes you his COFFEE FETCHER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flugel Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 The 1 time most of the stars and planets aligned for Joe we went 10-6 with a 1300 yard RB, a Pro Bowl WR (Braylon 80 rec 1289 yds 16 TDs) Pro Bowl TE (KWII 82 rec 1106 5 TDs) and a Pro Bowl Alternate QB (DA 29 TD passes). Unfortunately, that was his rookie year in 2007 and things were never quite the same except for the surprising 7-4 start to our 2014 season. Joe's Pro Bowl work ethic for 10 consecutive years on top of his elite skill set remained 1 VERY STRONG reason to never lose hope. Bitonio said something I never forgot so I'm sorry I can only give yuz an old man's paraphrase here: "Anyone that truly understand this game knows he's the best there is. Just watching the things he consistently puts on film; we're extremely fortunate to have the once in a lifetime talent. I'm blessed by the opportunity to play right next to him." Thanks for letting us watch how a Hall of Fame talent plays the most challenging position on the offensive line for over 10 years Joe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoeticG Posted March 20, 2018 Report Share Posted March 20, 2018 Joe Thomas. - I think that all the offensive lineman should wear a JT10K patch, marking 10,000 snaps, 10 probowls, started and ended a Brown.

There was some additional chitchat about life after football. Big point he made was how good he feels having lost 50#... has really reduced his struggles with Arthur Itis.
